Part 1 of Rediscovering Bohol.

Even if I’ve been traveling solo for almost two years already, each trip is still like my first. The night before an escapade, it is 99% definite that I won’t get much sleep, if any sleep, at all! You know, the excitement, the anticipation, makes me all-hyper! Plus the preparations as well. What am I supposed to bring? Did I leave anything essential behind? What else did I forget? The questions are endless, and I guess it’s all part of the adventure.

Part 1 of the Libotero Boracay BEACHing series.

So I finally had my round trip ticket booked. I was extremely happy and excited. I couldn’t explain it. It must be the Boracay hype. I will finally be able to enjoy what millions of tourists have raved about over the years. And then a lot of questions popped into my mind: Where will I stay? What will I do? What will I eat? What would I bring? What do I need to prepare?. The set of questions seemed to be endless. I just slept it over as the trip won’t be happening until 3 months.

The breathtaking vistas of the rugged coastline of Real, Quezon was so inspiring and now, we’re back in the smoother side of Real, Tignoan Beach!

We rested for a while in our room at Ocean Blue Resort and then readied for the beach. In an instant, we transformed to our swimwear and got back on our feet towards the beach!

It cannot be denied. Summer is finally here and making its presence felt. The almost-suffocating heat has an underlying message, GO OUTDOORS!

And for our first summer feature, we bring to you one of the most picturesque places in the archipelago, Taal Volcano.

This adventure happened not so long ago, before the restiveness of the volcano last year.

Part 7 of a series.

An hour has passed and our brief encounter with Balagbag Falls had to end. Sad, but I’ll definitely be back one of these days, during “waterfalls season”. So we walked back to the main road where our tricycle was parked.

We had to endure the pain in the *ss once more.

Part 6 of a series.

As soon as we got off the tricycle, we were already at the entrance to the Balagbag Falls. At the entrance, we had to pay a fee of P20 per head. You might ask, why is there a fee when this attraction is God-given? Well if you ask me, the fee is minimal but would go a long way in terms of maintaining the cleanliness within the vicinity of the waterfalls.
